IPL 2026: Marshs Ton Powers LSG To 209-3 In Rain-hit Clash With RCB
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Mitchell Marsh produced a breathtaking century while Rishabh Pant added late fireworks as hosts Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) piled up a commanding 209/3 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in a rain-curtailed Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 contest at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Thursday. With persistent rain interruptions reducing the match to 19 overs per side, Marsh stood tall with a sensational 111 off just 56 deliveries, hammering nine fours and nine sixes in one of the finest innings of the season. Pant then provided the finishing flourish with an unbeaten 32 off 10 balls as LSG crossed the 200-run mark in style. Put into bat after Rajat Patidar opted to bowl, LSG made a cautious start before Marsh exploded into life against Josh Hazlewood in the second over. The Australian all-rounder launched the RCB pacer for two towering sixes and never allowed the momentum to slip despite multiple rain stoppages. Bhuvneshwar Kumar initially found movement with the new ball, but Marsh counterattacked fiercely, taking on both pace and spin. Krunal Pandyas introduction did little to slow him down as the opener smashed the left-arm spinner for a four and a monstrous six in the fourth over. Rain briefly halted proceedings twice during the Power-play, but Marsh resumed with even greater intensity after every interruption. Rasikh Salam Dar bore the brunt of the assault as Marsh hammered him for two sixes and a boundary in the fifth over, racing to a 20-ball half-century, his fastest in IPL history. LSG finished the Power-play at 68 without loss, their highest opening stand of the season, with Marsh accounting for the bulk of the scoring. Arshin Kulkarni struggled for fluency at the other end but played second fiddle effectively during their 98-run opening partnership. Marsh continued his domination after the restart, punishing Suyash Sharma and Romario Shepherd with clean hitting all around the ground. The landmark finally arrived in the 14th over when he carved Shepherd through point for four to bring up a stunning 49-ball century, the fastest hundred by an LSG batter in IPL history. Krunal finally broke the opening stand by dismissing Kulkarni for 17, while Nicholas Pooran added useful momentum with a brisk 38 off 23 balls that included four boundaries and a six. Hazlewood eventually ended Marshs spectacular knock in the 17th over when Jacob Bethell completed a fine catch at deep point. But Pant ensured there was no slowdown at the death. The LSG skipper smashed Hazlewood for two fours and a six in a costly over before taking apart Rasikh in the final over with three successive boundaries, including an audacious six over backward point off the final ball. Despite disciplined spells in patches from Bhuvneshwar (0-34) and Krunal (1-31), RCBs bowlers struggled to contain Marshs relentless assault as LSG posted a formidable total in the rain-affected encounter. RCB will receive a revised target to chase under the DLS method, which is likely to be 213. The LSG skipper smashed Hazlewood for two fours and a six in a costly over before taking apart Rasikh in the final over with three successive boundaries, including an audacious six over backward point off the final ball.

Ramanathapuram police go to Bihar; arrested young man on charges of committing murder
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Mitchell Marsh admitted Lucknow Super Giants have struggled to put together complete performances this season, but remains optimistic that the side can revive its campaign against defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their Indian Premier League clash at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium on Thursday. Lucknow entered the contest under pressure after six consecutive defeats left them at the bottom of the standings with only two wins from nine matches. Speaking ahead of the game, Marsh said the teams inability to consistently deliver across all departments had hurt them throughout the tournament. Look, we just want to get back to winning ways. It's obviously been a really disappointing stretch for us. And we haven't been able to play 40 overs of cricket throughout the tournament. And in this tournament, especially, two or three bad overs can lose you games. And we've been on the wrong end of that, so hopefully we can get back to winning ways tonight. The Australian all-rounder also spoke about the batting conditions in Lucknow, saying the venue had previously produced high-scoring encounters despite its reputation for assisting bowlers. I think that's very natural as a batsman to know you want to take that Mumbai wicket everywhere you go. But in saying that, I thought last year the wicket, especially, was that we had a lot of 200 scores here. So it can be great here. I haven't seen it tonight, but hopefully there are lots of runs. Marsh, who has shown flashes of form this season, said he still feels a major innings could be around the corner and hopes to lead the sides recovery with a significant contribution. I'm hopeful. I haven't fully got going yet, it feels like. I've made a few small contributions. But yeah, hopefully a big score is around the corner. And as I said, we can get back to our winning ways. The opener is also set for another battle against fellow Australian and RCB pace spearhead Josh Hazlewood, who troubled him during the reverse fixture earlier this season in Bengaluru. That's nothing new. Having faced him in the nets for the last probably 15 years now, I've got a few bruises from Joshy. But hopefully I can get on top of him. Marsh acknowledged the challenge posed by the reigning champions but said Lucknow were looking forward to testing themselves against one of the strongest teams in the competition.
